BOSTON — Margo Adams says $20,000 isn’t enough.
Boston Red Sox third baseman Wade Boggs offered his former mistress that amount if she would drop her breach-of-contract suit against him, but Adams has rejected the overture, the Boston Globe reported today.
The California mortgage broker initially filed a $12-million suit against the five-time American League batting champion, but the courts have since reduced her claims to $500,000.
Jennifer King, Boggs’ attorney, said Adams has indicated that she would accept an amount “slightly larger” than the $100,000 she initially asked for when Boggs ended their four-year liaison.
